Thiel Owners


Guys-

I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

Much Thanks! mi4
this is a reference integrated amp, even if it is considered, entry level.
Happy Listening!
Thank You- nutty
yes, this amp is very powerful. The music just flowed without any effort to my ears. I started at level 30.0 on the volume. Then increased to 20.0, certainly loud at this point. By the time I reached 15.0, the sound was as loud as I wanted. The Anthem 225 is no slouch as we all know. The STR represents the next evolution of integrated amp. A killer DAC is on-board for those who want to go computer audio/streaming route.

In 2018, the Integrated amp has certainly come-of-age. And this is simply one company for example. Think about those other offerings at the $10k level and up to the $20k level.
Happy Listening!
Good catch- unsound and marqmike.
The CS 2.4 does not have a powered woofer section. It does not need one, in my opinion.  All listening was conducted w/o any subwoofer. This was my first introduction to Goldenear speakers. The Ribbon tweeter really shines and images well. The soundstage had plenty of depth and width in appropiate manner. All instruments exhibited proper texture with excellent separation, space and air. Still, Thiel captures a more naturally rich timbre.

Happy Listening!
